Two young downy woodpeckers are fed a special liquid insectivore diet. The woodpeckers were admitted after their nest tree fell down.

A black racer and two downy woodpeckers were among the 98 animals admitted to the von Arx Wildlife Hospital at the Conservancy of Southwest Florida last week. Other admissions include two common loons, a cedar waxwing, a limpkin, a common yellowthroat, two Florida soft-shell turtles, a gopher tortoise and 11 Eastern cottontails.
